Dear Sibgha, I hope

this

letter finds you and your family well and I'm really very sorry that I haven't written to you early .I've been so busy after coming back because of leftover work even I never seemed to have a minute to myself. Anyway, I am writing to you to express my feeling when I met you after a long time. I was dead excited to meet you.

Although

we spent a very short time together it was splendid and worthful.

furthermore

, when I was with you we visited a lot of adorable places but one place I've never forgotten is the garden near your house that astonishing view which made me spellbound. The garden is covered with green grass with fresh flowers and an exquisite lake tucked away in the middle. That was amazing I enjoyed the long walks there with you and the volunteer activity which we did during the spring festival in the garden was really fascinating. I enjoyed a lot that occasion and missed it so much . I wanted to invite you to my house for the upcoming winter vacation. There are a lot of places to visit which you will thoroughly enjoy believe me . I look forward to hearing from you. lots of love Yousra
